Dave's Ai engine focus on ROI, synchronising all your audiences, creative, and spend so your marketing engine runs in perfect rhythm and every dollar works harder.

you're guaranteed to fail!

Ok, that's a bit of a clickbait headline but the truth is, when using Google ads or any paid media platform most people pick monthly budget out of thin air and throw that at Google, Facebook, Instagram or and of the other platforms in the hope it will buy them leads. Once they discover it's not working they think it's because they need to spend more, which they do, and now the outcome has gotten worse.

Sometimes it's a media partner buying on your behalf, but again, you get the same result only this time it's more mysterious because you don't know who paid for what!


At Dave we do things differently.  Firstly, we make sure that you own all of your ad accounts, transparency is of upmost importance to us.

Secondly, we don't do forecasts to win your businesses, there are so many touchpoints and variables with an ad campaign, even google doesn't have a crystal ball to map future performance (they are clever but not that clever). Finally, we use the Dave Ai engine to map the many pramaters that will get you the best outcome.

But is paid advertising right for your business? Just follow the step by step instructions below to get a great idea on where you sit.
